Chapter 57: Discussion of the Navy
Gol D. Roger, nicknamed "Golden" Roger, the future Pirate King, the one who found Larudev, and the one who turned himself in to start the Great Pirate Era.
Roger is not so famous now, because the Battle of God Valley was hidden by the World Government, so although Roger's bounty is high, many people don't know Roger's record, but for the former crew of the Rocks Pirates, Roger's strength is recognized. Although Lily has never seen Roger, Kaido knows, and he told Lily everything he knows. At the same time, he also appreciates Roger as a person, at least he absolutely appreciates his strength.
"Can you confirm that they are coming to us?" Lily asked.
"To be precise, they are coming to Dressrosa, but according to their direction of travel, they will come to us first." Fato explained.
"I understand." Lily nodded. "I will discuss this with Kaido. Everyone should proceed as usual. Don't alert the enemy. But don't let your guard down. Monitor Roger's movements while ensuring your own safety." After Lily finished speaking, she walked out the door. She wanted to have a good chat with Kaido. There were two people waiting for her to treat them.
. . . . . . . The dividing line between Lily and Kaido's discussion. . . . . . .
Navy Headquarters, Marinford, Marshal's Office.
Navy Marshal - Steel Bone Sora sat upright in the marshal's chair, looking at the new generation of the navy's backbone in front of him.
"Tell me, what is the situation in the New World now?" Steel Bone Sora spoke first.
"Yes, Marshal, as for the New World, the internal fighting of the remnants of the Rocks Pirates has stabilized in recent years. The most powerful one now is the Golden Lion - Shiki. His flying pirate group is huge, and relying on the ability of Shiki's floating fruit, their actions are strange and it is impossible to catch them. Now they are called Pirate Admirals by many pirates in the New World." The Vice Admiral of the Navy, Crane, who was called the "Great Staff", stood up and said. At this time, Crane was only in his forties, and he didn't look old like later, but he still looked charming.
"Shiki? This guy is the most ambitious one. He wants to be the king like Rocks." The admiral of the Navy, "Xianshi" - Sengoku, who was called "Big Buddha" and "Wise General", touched his beard and expressed his opinion.
"Shiki's fruit makes us unable to deal with it for the time being, let's continue." Steel Bone Kong knows that Shiki is difficult to deal with, not because of his strength, but because this guy can run away at any time if he can't beat him, and he runs with his family, constantly harassing you in the sky, and you can't do anything about him.
"Next is Whitebeard - Edward Newgate. The Whitebeard Pirates he founded have already established a territory deep in the New World. Relying on the unparalleled attack power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, few people can match him."
"Whitebeard is indeed very strong, but I have seen him. He is not the kind of person who likes to fight for the throne. Although he is powerful, as long as you don't provoke him, his threat is minimal." Zephyr, who quickly became an admiral three years ago, said.
"Hahahahaha, that's right, that's right, Whitebeard prefers to play house with a group of children rather than being a king. This senbei is really delicious. Do you have any more, Sengoku?" A reckless and unreasonable voice sounded. No need to ask, it must be this guy Garp.
"Damn it! Those are the senbei I bought! Where did you get them from!" Sengoku cursed and reached out to grab them, but Garp couldn't let him do it, so he quickly dodged. The two of them moved around the room until Steel Bone Kong couldn't stand it anymore. He flew forward, snatched the senbei from Garp's hand, poured it all into his mouth, and then punched each of them, returned to the main seat, and signaled to Crane that they could continue.
Everyone was accustomed to what had just happened. These guys came several times almost every day.
"Ahem." Crane cleared his throat and said, "Next is the Roger Pirates. As a pirate group that worked with Garp to get rid of Rocks, these guys are also very dangerous, but they don't seem to have the idea of establishing a force, and they have been wandering on the sea."
"Okay, Xiaohe, there's no need to talk about Roger, just leave it to me." Garp laughed with a big bump on his head, and took over the task.
"Don't interrupt, Garp, Crane, go on." Kong glared at Garp.
"BIG·MOM——Charlotte·Linlin, the BIG·MOM Pirates she founded also seized a piece of territory in the New World and called themselves the World Kingdom."
"Charlotte·Linlin? I get angry when I talk about this. She could have become a member of our navy, but I didn't expect the World Government to mess it up." Kong knew what happened back then. Looking at Charlotte·Linlin's current strength, he was indignant at the efficiency of the World Government back then. What conditions can't such a person agree to? He even wanted to lower the price, and the duck flew away.
"Then Wang Zhi, Silver Axe, John and others all conquered their own territories, but it seems that there was an internal strife in John's territory recently, but I don't know the specific situation." Crane didn't pay attention to Kong's words and said to himself.
"Anything else?"
"There is more." Crane turned to the second page of the report. "The Beasts Pirates, the leader of which is Kaido, was an intern in the Rocks Pirates. The vice-captain is Rose Lily. Both of them are demons. Not only are they strong, but the most important thing is that the Beasts have already laid a foundation. Recently, there is a company called Hundred Sparrows in the World Government, which seems to be the white glove thrown by the Beasts. The most important point is that Kaido and Lily made a big fuss in the Vegapunk Research Institute, causing countless experimental equipment to be damaged, test products to disappear, etc. According to statistics, the loss of Baili is not less than 10 billion."
"Beasts?" Kong was stunned. In recent years, due to the turmoil caused by the dissolution of Rocks, the Navy was ordered by the World Government to shrink its defense and let the New World pirates make trouble on their own. As a result, the current Navy is extremely unclear about the situation in the New World. It was not until half a year ago, when the New World was relatively stable, that it began to re-lay out in the New World. Therefore, Kong is not very clear about the low-key development of the Beasts before.
"That's right. There are not many people on the Beasts Pirates group who have been rewarded. Only Captain Kaido and Vice Captain Lily have high bounties, but they are very dangerous, because the World Government's detention ship that appeared before was looted many times, and it seems that it was done by the Beasts. Many political prisoners who were captured before were found to be under the command of the Beasts during this intelligence collection." Crane felt that the Beasts might not be simple when he saw this report for the first time.
"Is there a detailed report? Give me a copy." Kong asked.
"Here, I have prepared it in advance." As a chief of staff, Crane has always prepared everything in advance and prepared detailed intelligence on each pirate for everyone present.
"They have occupied more than ten islands and are suspected of cooperating with the World Government member states such as Dressrosa. Their subordinates seem to be lax, but in fact, they have strict internal rules and cannot be mixed in. They have found many political prisoners mixed in. They have a great reputation in the underground black market in the New World and are buying animal-type devil fruits everywhere?" Kong looked at the information in his hand, and the more he looked, the more strange it became. This group of guys really didn't look like a group of pirates, but more like a country.
Kong kept flipping through the information and finally saw the wanted posters for Kaido and Lily.
"He, you said before that the destruction of Vegapunk's laboratory half a year ago was their work, right?"
"That's right, because according to the information we got, Kaido seemed to be drunk at the time and fell onto a CP ship, and then was transported to Vegapunk's laboratory. A few days later, the news of the laboratory's destruction came." He nodded and said.
"Then why hasn't the bounty changed? I see that the change above is still a year ago."
"The World Government intervened. The World Government banned the promotion of this matter, so the bounty that was originally planned to be increased was stagnant."
"Add it. This kind of guy is more dangerous than others. We can't let them develop steadily. We don't have the energy to plan a new world now. Increase the bonus and let them fight among themselves."
"Marshal, how much is appropriate to increase?"
"300 million, 300 million for each person, it should be no problem."
"Okay, I'll tell them later." He nodded, indicating that he understood.
At this moment, with a bang, the office door was opened.
"Marshal! Urgent news! Roger's Pirates and the Beasts Pirates have come into contact!"
